How Do I Get Started?

CMHS offers a variety of psychological services to assist you in managing the many demands and developmental challenges of college. Getting started with CMHS begins with a phone call.

Triage & Brief Assessment (Routine)

If you are new to CMHS, please call during our regular center hours of 8:30a.m. to 4:30p.m. to schedule a brief assessment. During this time we will triage your concerns, provide you with both on-campus and off-campus referrals as appropriate, and in the case of emergencies, connect you with immediate crisis services.

Triage & Brief Assessment (Emergency)

CMHS provides same day services for crisis and emergency situations. If you are in crisis or have an emergency please contact us during our usual hours of M-F from 8:30a.m. – 4:30p.m or walk in.

We can arrange for you to meet with our daily on-call therapist to discuss the nature of your concerns, provide helpful interventions, and discuss options and recommendations that meet your clinical care requirements.

If you are in need of emergency service at other times, please see our website for more information as to how to Access Emergency Services. If you are in a serious and life threatening emergency, please bypass this information and call 911 immediately for the UConn Police.
